I'm ashamed to admit I've eaten 2 breakfasts and 2 lunches today - and none of it particularly healthy. And I could still go for a bowl of ice cream at the moment. Gah!

Anyone else seem to not be able to get enough to eat these days? My appetite seemed pretty level for a while but I wonder if it's ramping up again. I just know my weigh-in tomorrow is not going to be pretty.

I've been eating all day long but not much each serving because I'm in too much pain and it's all been healthy. I'll tell ya what- get a bad case of hemorrhoids and you will no longer want anything unhealthy lol I'm still scared of the fact that what goes in must come out eventually lol but I've been hungry constantly for weeks now. I just finally changed my diet because really 40 lbs is enough weight gain for me!!

Omg it's like a cruel, cruel joke! I also have GD, but of course I now have the urge to eat a tub of ice cream smothered in hot fudge! Oh, and definitely Chicken in a Biskit crackers...the whole box. When not pregnant, I eat like a friggin' rabbit. Lots of raw veggies, and yes, I love my cheeses. But gosh dangit, right now I want carbs. I want to bathe in them.

I did go through a period of time when I couldn't get enough to eat - no matter what I felt like I'd not had anything to eat. Thankfully that's eased off some, though I do find myself hungrier than I would normally be.

I have days where I don't have much of an appetite at all, but then days like yesterday where I couldn't stop eating. I paid for that with heartburn all night last night though so today it's been easy to avoid eating much.

This past week I've been insane. I can't stop eating at all and it is worrying me! I stepped on the scale a couple days ago and had only gone up fur pounds... ***? When I was eating sensibly I gained like ten pounds between weigh ins! Anyhow, I'm famished and I can't get full. It's really tricky!

I have had a couple of ppl tell me that they got a RAVENOUS appetite right before they went into labor. They ate and ate and ate, never got full or satisfied. Like their bodies knew they wouldn't be able to eat for a long time very soon!

Even DH said he has been a lot hungrier than normal. I told him it was because we won't be able to eat as much once she gets here. Lol. Miraculously I think I only gained one pound since my last appointment!
